Slash ATV HUB Snowboard
Legendary shredder and Slash founder Gigi Ruf is well known for his precision on a snowboard in the backcountry, so it's no surprise that his pro model ATV HUB Snowboard is designed to deliver the kind of performance Gigi expects in a board. Like a finely tuned Swiss watch, the Swiss Wood core is intricately designed and constructed to deliver specific results. When the board flexes downward, such as when boardsliding a rail, the core matrix makes the edges bend upward, reducing hangups while jibbing; when the board flexes upward, as it does during a turn, the edges flex downward for superior edge hold while carving. The result is a powerful board that charges through trees and powder fields, but doesn't mind being taken into the park, either.
- Traditional camber is powerful and poppy
- Reactive flex biax glass layup makes the board flex across the width, which lifts the edges while boardsliding to reduce hangups
- Swiss Wood core is precision-engineered to make the edges rise when the board is flexed downward, such as on rails, and to help the edges dig in when the board is flexed upward on turns, increasing edge hold
- Ultimate Traction Bumps positions five bumps along the effective edge for grip in icy conditions
- Twin shape with directional flex for superior drive and float in pow
- Diamond Finnish base is durable and fast
- Tip Protectors metal wrapped tip and tail for durability
- Re-curve cut tip and tail reduces swing weight and makes for easy grabs
Bottom Line: Pick a line, any line.
Leave your mark on The Wall.

The 2012/2013 SLASH ATV HUB 156 is a super fun board! After riding rocker and rocker combo boards for the past few seasons it is so nice to ride a traditional camber profile board. The ATV HUB 156 is a solid board, not too heavy and not too light. The flex, stability, and direction twin shape are perfect for this all mountain destroyer. The edge hold with the ultimate traction bumps is key in hardpack and icy conditions. The sintered base is fast and durable. Aesthetics wise, The SLASH identity shape and graphics make it a beautiful board to look at. Gigi puts his name behind this board and his SLASH brand, and believe me, it rips!
